Windows uses NTP by default with sane settings -- and it logs by default. So whatever issue you're experiencing is not a Microsoft problem, but a *you problem*. And the fact you state that there are no logs, which is false, kinda proves it.


that's such a cop out. Whatever store GP is buying computers from is messing things up, but how come Microsoft lets things get so bugged up in the first place? If I get an iPhone, it'll just work.


Agreed. I have several windows gaming PCs for my kids. One of them occasionally decides it’s in California and has to be corrected. Why? I have no idea.

Every single Mac, iPad, and iPhone gets this right with zero configuration.
